I am currently working on a project in the ASP.NET Zero framework and I am trying to create a custom Metronic theme. I started by copying an existing theme and used the documentation to add a new version of that theme but with a different name.
I followed every step in the documentation and I have also searched in the whole project for the places where the themes get implemented. Everything after this looks ok and I can see the theme in my theme selections.
But the problem is when I chose the theme and save it, then the page won't show anything. I only see a white page. The settings, however, get updated with the correct theme and if I inspect the network tap in the browser, then I see that everything is loaded without problems. There are also no errors to be found. I don't understand what I am doing wrong here.

I've been asked to add a search function to a website. I'm trying this out on a testing site at http://www.somethingchronic.org.uk (the password to view is Entrand0s1).
I've installed a search plugin which works on all pages except the home page. On that page it clashes with the script in the slider plugin and when I tried deactivating the slider plugin I also lost the four large buttons at the bottom of the page which are part of the theme itself. Both the slider plugin and the theme are old but I'm hoping to keep the site going for a little while longer if I can. I asked for advice from the search plugin developer who said it's to do with the slider loading an older version of the jQuery library. I searched on here for jQuery library conflicts - one answer linked to the learn.jquery website with a list of options for avoiding library conflicts. There were a number of options for adding code - I tried adding some of these to the header.php document but each time the site broke completely and truth is I don't know enough about jQuery to know which is the correct piece of code to try. Any advice appreciated - would be great to know if there is a way to get the search plugin to also work on the home page whilst keeping the current slider. Many thanks
I'm just playing about with an offline copy of Concrete5 and was wondering if there is any way to link blocks to the composer system to make them work? I made a page template hoping I could just click 'new page' and select my template to add it to the right area of my test site, but it won't show up. I then tried to edit a preset page template from my theme, and that worked fine... except it still populates the new page with the original blocks.
It seems like a total nightmare to do anything in this system. Should I be using a different one if I can't even do this?
I am not sure I fully understand your question but have you had a look at this tutorial? It might help https://documentation.concrete5.org/tutorials/setup-a-simple-blog-within-concrete-5-7
I'm programming using Notepad ++ and using a localhost to build out wordpress themes. I've noticed that I save the stylesheet, then I go to refresh the wordpress page and it doesn't show an effect. I check the source code, and it's still using the old style sheet.
Then a couple of minutes later, it uses the new one. I've seen people have stylesheets update automatically, I'd like to know if there's anything special I need to be doing to make this so?
I've just finished creating a new custom theme based on the underscores framework, and It's ended up breaking my current wordpress installation after applying it.
Although everything is running fine on the front end, the back end is running really weird.
The following issues have presented themselves:
Trying to add a new post (either regular, or one of the new custom post types I've defined) just results in a blank page. Although the post has been created, the admin section gets stuck on the wp-admin/post.php page.
My media library no longer shows up in the media browser. Although all 6,000+ images are still there, none show up.
When logged in, it takes ages for the page to load in the Wordpress admin bar, as it appears it can no longer display the site stats (it just shows the broken image icon after it's finally finished loading in, when the new theme is selected).
I've tried to refresh the permalinks, but this hasn't worked.
Any ideas? I was hoping to re-launch my website today, but it looks like I might have to put it on hold...
Get ahold of the devs for your framework. Your experience is not an uncommon one. It has happened to my sites several times. Unless you want to tweak the php yourself, they will have to help you.
Managed to sort this out. Turns out a function I had written to add a custom field to menu items broke the entire back end. Thanks for the help everyone!
My site used the Sunburst theme without any custom style sheets – at most I would update the logo. I recently updated the logo and front-page after a long absence. The logo was successfully updated, however something else happened and now the site appears unstyled. Skip to content/Skip to navigation text links (for accessibility) appear at the top where they had not previously.
I checked portal_skins/custom, but there was no ploneCustom.css file there to remove, only the logo.png. I tried changing the theme to Classic but it also appeared unstyled, so then I changed it back to Sunburst. Next I went to portal_skins/sunburst_styles and pressed the customize button for public.css and ploneCustom.css, hoping to override the current style. Even though the style files were copied to portal_skins/custom (I did not modify the copies), the site still appears unstyled.
Please help a grad student whose occasional task is to maintain a Plone site (server is running Plone 4.) The server admin is away at a conference – the previous server admin who had the Plone expertise graduated last fall and is now out of the country (and also at the same conference.) I’ve read the documentations and searched for similar issues, but am at wit’s end.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance in how to revert back to the default Sunburst theme styles!
Sometimes the "Plone Classic Theme" seems to become applied when upgrading. In the Theme control panel ( http://yoursite/##skins-controlpanel ) make sure that "Sunburst" is selected.
